[00:00:00] The Devil And The Ploughman - A. L. Lloyd

[00:00:05] There was an old farmer in sussex did dwell

[00:00:09] And he'd a bad wife as many knew well

[00:00:12] To me fal-de-ral little law-day

[00:00:16] The devil he come to the old man at plough

[00:00:20] Saying one of your family i must have now

[00:00:22] To me fal-de-ral little law-day

[00:00:27] Now it isn't for you nor yet for your son

[00:00:31] But that scolding old wife as you've got at home

[00:00:33] To me fal-de-ral little law-day

[00:00:38] Oh take her oh take her with all of me heart

[00:00:42] And i wish she and you never more part

[00:00:44] To me fal-de-ral little law-day

[00:00:48] So the devil he took the old wife on his back

[00:00:53] And lugged her along like a pedlar's pack

[00:00:55] To me fal-de-ral little law-day

[00:01:00] He trudged along till he reached his front gate

[00:01:04] Says here take in an old sussex chap's mate

[00:01:06] To me fal-de-ral little law-day

[00:01:11] There was thirteen imps all dancing in chains

[00:01:15] She up with her pattens and beat our their brains

[00:01:17] To me fal-de-ral little law-day

[00:01:22] Well two more little devils jumped over the wall

[00:01:27] Saying turn her out father she'll murder us all

[00:01:28] To me fal-de-ral little law-day

[00:01:33] So he bundled her up on his back again

[00:01:38] And to her old husband he took her again

[00:01:39] To me fal-de-ral little law-day

[00:01:44] Well i've been a tormentor the whole of me life

[00:01:49] But i was never tormented till i met your wife

[00:01:51] To me fal-de-ral little law-day

[00:01:55] And now to conclude and make an end

[00:02:00] You see that the women is worse than the men

[00:02:02] If they get sent to hell they get kicked back again

[00:02:04] To me fal-de-ral little law-day
